Prior to 1837 the Representatives from this state were elected by the people at large. The number at first, under the Constitution, was five and by later apportionments was changed in 1793 to seven, in 1823 to six, and in 1843 to four. From 1837 to 1843 they were elected one from each of the six districts into which the state was divided by an act of the General Assembly; from 1843 to 1911 they were elected, one from each of the four districts established by the General Assembly of 1842, as follows: District number one, consisting of the counties of Hartford and Tolland; district number two, the counties of New Haven and Middlesex; district number three, the counties of New London and Windham; district number four, the counties of Fairfield and Litchfield. A fifth representative, to which the state was entitled under the census of 1900, was chosen at large. At the session of 1911 the state was divided into five districts as follows: District No. 1, County of Hartford; District No. 2, Counties of Tolland, Windham, New London and Middlesex; District No. 3, Towns of Bethany, Branford, Cheshire, East Haven, Guilford, Hamden, Madison, Meriden, Milford, New Haven, North Branford, North Haven, Orange, Wallingford, West Haven and Woodbridge in County of New Haven; District No. 4, County of Fairfield; District No. 5, County of Litchfield and the Towns of Ansonia, Beacon Falls, Derby, Middlebury, Naugatuck, Oxford, Prospect, Seymour, Southbury, Waterbury and Wolcott in the County of New Haven. The 1921 session of the General Assembly enacted a law creating the office of Congressman-at-Large if a reapportionment stemming from the 1920 census gave Connecticut a sixth congressional seat. However, Congress did not reapportion until after the 1930 census and, at this time, the state received the sixth post of Congressman-at-Large. A 1931 act of the General Assembly stated this representative was to be "designated as 'Representative-at-Large.'" The State was divided into six districts by act of the General Assembly in Special Session, April 1964, abolishing the post of Representative-at-Large. As a result of the 2000 census, the number of congressional districts in Connecticut was reduced from six to five. The composition of the five districts was established by the Plan of Districting approved by the Reapportionment Commission pursuant to the Connecticut Constitution and filed in the Office of the Secretary of the State on December 21, 2001. As a result of the 2010 census, the number of congressional districts in Connecticut remained at five. The composition of the five districts was established by the Plan of Districting adopted by the Connecticut Supreme Court and filed in the Office of the Secretary of the State on February 10, 2012.

In instances where no districts are given, the elections were at large.
